Prairie Knit Wit Cooks

A random collection of recipes that I have found, were given to me, or are happy kitchen accidents. You will find weekly menu plans here as well as random posts about housekeeping. Mostly, it's about the food. Enjoy!

* Here's how I cook spareribs: I season my racks of ribs with seasoned salt and pepper, place in a crockpot with no liquid and cook for 4 hours on high, or 6 hours on low--the meat will be succulent, juicy and falling off the bone. Just before the cooking time is up, preheat your broiler and line a sheet pan with foil. Once the ribs are cooked, carefully transfer those ribs to the sheet pan (they will be falling apart!) and baste generously with your favourite barbeque sauce. Broil until bubbly and browned. Serve with extra sauce for dipping and lots of napkins.

It's Monday! I am working at my new job now (at a yarn and scrapbooking store! Fun!) so I am behind on the shopping. Here is what we are eating this week. We are still doing 5:2 and I am feeling great. My body is really responding well to the low-cal days. The kids are home so I am back to cooking every day.

Monday: (fast) Hamburgers and raw vegetables. No cheese and low cal wraps instead of buns for the grown ups.
